This is a backdated post of my liveblog of the Log Horizon anime. This contains my liveblog of seasons 1-3 (everything out so far).

1 | 9:00 PM · Dec 14, 2022 | Okay I started watching Log Horizon based on @rachelmon2's recommendation lol. I've only watched the first episode so far, but I like how there's so much variety in the characters already. |
2 | Kuroe is such a schemer LOL. There are a lot of parallels to Overlord here, but the scale of how many characters got isekai'd makes the problems they encounter more interesting. The fact that they can't die either makes even the weakest players invincible gods. | |
3 | I got to the episode that explains how they actually got isekai'd, the stuff about anima and psyche is an interesting way to describe how people view their avatars as an extension of themselves, in a literal sense. WHO is casting all these World Fractions?? | |
4 | 8:38 PM · Dec 16, 2022 | LOL Lenessia was pretending to faint to make her point. She did a good job with her speech to get past the BS the nobles were pulling. |
5 | ONE OF THE ADVENTURERS WASN'T AN ACTUAL PLAYER ;ALSKFJL;KASFJAL;FJS noooooooooo. | |
6 |
| This actually makes Rudy the biggest MVP, because he was doing everything that everyone else was, with the threat of real death. The fact that he can level the same as the other players means that other NPCs can too.... |
7 | SHIROE FIGURED OUT A WAY TO BRING HIM BACK YESSSS. It's cool that they can invent new magic, it really cements the fact that this is just a fantasy world similar to the game, or maybe the game was a way to lure people into the other world. | |
8 | The autumn festival episode is cute! Minori and Akatsuki force-feeding Shiro cake was pretty funny. There are just couples all over the main cast, but I don't dislike any of them tbh. | |
9 | 11:08 PM · Dec 16, 2022 | I feel bad for Minori, but she's too young for Shiroe, plus Akatsuki is the obvious main love interest. I wish we got some confirmation as to how old some of the main characters are lol, like Nyanta and Serara. |
10 | omg Henrietta likes Shiroe too... not gonna lie that's kinda cute.... | |
11 | AND Marielle is confirmed to have a crush on Naotsugu?? I KNEW IT! | |
12 | I finished Season 1 of Log Horizon! The Scale Festival arc was fun. I'm pretty much going to start Season 2 now, but I'm curious as to where the series plans to go next. The introduction of a new "villain" character, Nezuha, was kind of random. | |
13 | Going to start S2, I'm sad that DATABASE isn't going to be the opening song anymore. | |
14 | OH I SPOKE TOO SOON!! Database is such a hype song lmao, it's like THE log horizon song. | |
15 | Flavor text becoming real is such a cool development. This adds an extra layer of complexity to everything that the characters are dealing with, but also adds extra tools for them to use. ALSO RIP CRUSTY I GUESS | |
16 |
| This is kind of random, but legit my fav character from Log Horizon is the Sage of Miral Lake. He's so awkward and his hands are animated at like 60 fps lmao. And he so badly wants to learn more about the adventurers. The gap moe got me |
17 | Watching the Christmas/New Years arc at the same time as real Christmas feels like a special treat. This show makes me wish I was actually into MMOs lol | |
18 | Wow I actually feel kind of bad for Nezuha after all the terrible things Intix said to her. | |
19 | Isuzu's song was so cute, I hope there's a complete | |
20 | This is definitely Shiroe's alt account right? It looks exactly like him and it says "Roe 2" lmaoooo. If it's not him, then it's a copycat of some sort | |
21 | She even copied his whole outfit, and the way he pushes up his glasses. | |
22 | OOOOOHHH I KNEW IT, IT WAS HIS ALT CHARACTER !!! Even his alt character came to life, that's so cool!! Roe2 has such a different personality compared to Shiroe, so I wonder where that part came from. | |
23 |
| |
24 | Finished S2 of Log Horizon! I was worried since some other people said that S2 was worse somehow, but I actually enjoyed it a lot! The side characters in Akiba are all charming, there's not a single chara I don't like :). | |
25 | I'm starting S3 of Log Horizon now! Only 12 episodes to go, I'm gonna try and finish this before the end of the year lol. | |

27 | 6:58 PM · Dec 31, 2022 | Okay the whole general election thing is pretty cool, i did think it was kind of messed up that the natives of Yamato didn't get any representation in Akiba Round Table since it was made by adventurers. |
28 | It seems kind of obvious in hindsight, but I still don't understand how this fixes the problem with adventurers not participating in the economy. They're still depressed and want to go home. | |

30 | 9:49 PM · Dec 31, 2022 | Finished the Election Arc and Krusty Tycoon arc, now in the last arc for S3 I think. When Litka and Lelia said that they remembered the player characters (Tetora, Shiroe, etc.), I really teared up 🥹 NPCs that remember the PCs from the game fondly..... |
31 | 10:42 PM · Dec 31, 2022 | S3 ended with another raid battle, this time with the kiddos!! I really liked how it shows their they've grown and gained confidence. The "Genius" idea really makes for interesting boss ideas, since they abuse the game rules. |
32 | Also, I feel bad for Minori to get her heartbroken like that, but it's just another bittersweet part of growing up. It seemed a little "heartless", but Shiroe confessing that he was in love with someone else and being honest about it is probably for the best. | |
33 | Honestly I really liked Log Horizon overall, it makes me wish that I had discovered it sooner rather than avoiding every isekai anime that was even vaguely like SAO. There are a lot of good isekai shows, and I've been missing out on them | |
34 | Also, my main ship Rudy/Isuzu sailed!! Thank you Log Horizon for a very fun 2 weeks. |
